 * Anyone know how to include a thumbnail to the post summary? There could be a 
   plugin that perform such function.
 * Many thanks!

 * Thanks imintheus for the link. However, mine is the sliding door theme. The php
   codes are way too different.

 * Finally, I have found an easy way! Just install the plugin called “Thumbnail 
   for Excerpts”. The name already revealed it all what the plugin could do 🙂
